BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Advocate Ruhul Kabir Rizvi has accused the Jamaat-e-Islami chief of attempting to distort the history of Bangladesh’s independence. Speaking on Tuesday at the BNP central office in Nayapaltan, Dhaka, during a prayer gathering marking Shab-e-Barat, Rizvi said Jamaat leaders were making false claims about the country’s independence declaration. He alleged that the Jamaat chief’s recent remarks were an attempt to divert attention from his offensive comments about women.
Rizvi criticized Jamaat for supporting the Pakistani army during the 1971 Liberation War and for failing to acknowledge the atrocities committed against Bangladeshi women. He asserted that the true declaration of independence came from former President Ziaur Rahman, who, as a major, guided the nation and called for armed resistance. Rizvi also recalled Jamaat’s and Sheikh Hasina’s reversal of earlier pledges not to participate in the 1986 election under Ershad, contrasting that with Khaleda Zia’s steadfastness.
He questioned the credibility of Jamaat’s current political motives, saying that revising historical facts for political gain would not be accepted by the public.
